This is a discussion on Don't Call it a Come Back! within the online poker forums, in the Tournament Poker section; I've been here for years! :cool:
Just making a thread to give me a little more motivation than I already have to get back to

Just making a thread to give me a little more motivation than I already have to get back to the forum that made me who I am as a player! I'll be talking strategy, hands, and posting cashes as i go along!

Some of you might know me and some are meeting me on here for the first time but I promise we'll have fun!

If anyone else wants to get motivated and play some mental shattering tournaments with me, join in!

In! Grats on the final table. Hopefully this will motivate me to do the same thing as you and not procrastinate. Maybe I will start a little later

re: Poker & Don't Call it a Come Back!

Well these next 2 weeks should be fun. I am going to the hospital in about 1 hour to get nasal reconstructive surgery to fix a broken nose (not from fighting!) and some other septum/sinus problems I have had all my life!

I will be on leave for these 2 weeks meaning I will be at home, in bed, playing poker!!! I don't think anyone has been more excited to get surgery

Buddy of mine at work just had similar done. He feels like a new man and says he never knew how good it could be to breathe. He said it wasn't terribly painful but the after care stuff was rather gross. I think he only missed like 4 days (including a weekend).

gl with it. Hope it turns out well.

Yeah, the way they explained the after care sounds how your buddy explained it. I am excited though because I am the same way. I can never breath out of my nose, I breath out of my mouth when I sleep, and when I eat...it's horrible!

Thanks though! I got lucky getting 2 weeks of free paid leave for it

All though I have been playing poker for 40 years... I knew nothing about Texas holdem until I came here and it was your posts that opened my eyes to a new world.

Looking forward to keep on learning from a master.

THANKS for coming back to this great site.

Hope you go on a sick run for your two weeks of bed/poker time. You'll feel like a new man (the surgery might play a part in that, and here's to a good recovery)!

Thank you. I didn't realize I had such an impact on players here! It makes me feel good about putting time in to some work in the past! Hopefully you are doing well!

I'll be playing a few on BCP and Bovada today. I understand the player fields will be low but I really can't get used to playing in them :/

Tonight and tomorrow will be great though!

Glad the surgery went well, and jealous of your time to grind.

Question though, what do you mean about the player fields being low?

Other than the weekends, and even on the weekends, the player fields are very low and it it is hard to make a big score off of a lower buy in. Anything worth while is $50+ and then first place is only around $2k-3k. It just sucks because I used to play $11-$24 mtts for a $6k-10k score...

I see. Yes, I miss the days of $5-$12 games bringing in a few k for first. Fun navigating the 6k people too. I just wasn't sure if you meant that just this weekend was going to have low player fields.

Why don't you play on a merge poker skin? Probably not a big difference, but from what I know it has the biggest playing field for US players. BCP use to be part of merge, but left last year.

Hope all goes well!

Just lost early in the CC freeroll on Bovada with QQ<AA but all is not lost though, about to final table a $12 on Bovada and qualified for the $7.500 in a few minutes!

Not feeling BCP much today!

re: Poker & Don't Call it a Come Back!

Wow, wish I would have played this $7,500 qualifier earlier. I think I sattied in with like 100 pts and only one person had to get knocked out to make it. $1000 for first place and 90/400-55 will be getting payed!
